Drew Wilkinson, founder of the Climate Leadership Collective and LinkedIn Learning instructor, joins Jennifer and Kati to explore why less than 1 percent of any workforce working on sustainability simply doesn't scale — and what to do about it.
Drew's journey started as a paralegal at Microsoft. Over 10 years, he helped build the company's first employee sustainability community, helped push Microsoft toward its 2020 climate commitments, and watched as software engineers created green coding principles that now influence the entire profession. Today, he is bringing his experience to a wide array of companies and industries.
We dig into the difference between working in climate and working on climate, why the professional sphere is a sweet spot for impact, and how to create pathways for employees to connect their passion with their purpose.
